Technology Behind 1J85 Soft Magnetic Alloy Bars

The production of 1J85 soft magnetic alloy bars involves several advanced manufacturing processes:

1. Precision Melting: The alloy is first melted using precise methods to ensure uniform distribution of its components.

2. Hot Rolling and Cold Drawing: These techniques are used to form the material into its final shape while maintaining the necessary mechanical properties.

3. Controlled Atmosphere Annealing: To enhance the material's soft magnetic performance, 1J85 undergoes controlled atmosphere annealing. This process optimizes the grain structure and reduces internal stresses, ensuring superior permeability and minimal core losses in low-frequency AC circuits.

These processes result in 1J85 bars with high magnetic response and a steep B-H curve, which indicates minimal applied magnetic field requirements for magnetic saturation, making it an excellent choice for electromagnetic applications.
